Scratching the surface? Taxonomic revision of the subgenus Schizoptera (Odontorhagus) reveals vast undocumented biodiversity in the largest litter bug genus Schizoptera Fieber (Hemiptera: Dipsocoromorpha) Author Leon, Stephanie Author Weirauch, Christiane text Zootaxa 2016 4184 2 255 284 journal article 37901 10.11646/zootaxa.4184.2.2 6dce6de7-19d7-462d-a123-e94ad5135e89 1175-5326 164749 5B8F792E-EEDB-494D-9EB3-48CA6174CC6E Schizoptera ( Odontorhagus ) quasicompleta , n. sp. ( Figs 3 , 6 and 7 ) Diagnosis. Distinguished among species of Schizoptera ( Odontorhagus ) by the rounded head, the weakly asymmetrical subgenital plate, the tab-like process of stVI, the small, blunt process of the subgenital plate, the needlelike right conjunctival appendage, and the uniformly thin stem of the right paramere.

Description. Male : length: 1.39–1.42 mm ; body broadly ovate; COLORATION: general coloration dark brown; fuscous patch covering more than 1/2 of wing membrane; Sc+C concolorous with remainder of hemelytra ( Fig. 3 ). SURFACE AND VESTITURE: as in subgeneric description. STRUCTURE: HEAD: slightly rounded in ventral view ( Fig. 3 ); eyes about 1/3 as wide as synthlipsis. THORAX: as in subgeneric description; hemelytron as in subgeneric description; M2 vein distinctly curving; anterior membranal cell wedge-shaped. ABDOMEN: as in subgeneric description; stVI with a tab-like process on posterior margin; subgenital plate weakly asymmetrical; process of subgenital plate blunt, not fully differentiated from subgenital plate ( Fig. 6P ); tVII rectangular; tVIII weakly rectangular and sclerotized; length of tVII about 1/3 length of tVII. GENITALIA: py as in subgeneric description; rp as in subgeneric description with a uniformly thin stem; lp as in subgeneric description, with a blunt triangular dorsal process; rca needlelike; lca with a short, about 1/3 length of rca, tapering tip ( Fig. 6P ); vesica uniformly thin with a needlelike tip, forming two coils; anophore as in subgeneric description with a tab-like dorsal flap ( Fig. 6P ). Female : length 1.42 mm ; general habitus as in male. Distribution. Known from multiple collection events at the La Selva Biological station in Costa Rica ( Fig. 7 ). Etymology. Derived from the Latin “quasi” meaning as if and “completus” meaning completed because of the seemingly “entire” look of the subgenital plate in ventral view.
